FAQ
Cremation is a process that uses heat to reduce the body to bone fragments, which are then processed into ashes.
Most providers offer individual cremations where remains are kept separate; confirm details with your crematorium or funeral home.
Ashes are typically returned in a sealed container or temporary urn, often placed inside a protective box or bag for transport.
You can ask the funeral home to handle delivery, or choose a keepsake urn or service that minimizes the need to transfer remains yourself.
Common options include keeping them in an urn, scattering, burial, columbarium placement, or dividing them among keepsakes.
For air travel, choose TSA-friendly urn materials and check your airline’s policies; carry-on is often recommended.
Prices vary by material, size, and craftsmanship. Basic urns can be affordable, while premium designs may cost more.
A common guideline is about 1 cubic inch per pound of body weight. When in doubt, choose a slightly larger size.
